WOW! Beautiful choc creations everyone !Im adding what I have been working on, I will add a picture after I have them all bagged also. I had to make over 60 of these ribbons!
Fiddle that is such a great idea to support breast cancer awareness. Perfect shade of hot pink, too 
My truffle cake turned out ok. I wish I would have piped a shell border to stick the truffles on top of, but there is always next time
Thanks Jana! I looked for your cake ? you didnt post it ?
No, I didn't take very good photos of this one so I didn't post it. Digital camera was dead and camera phones are fuzzy. you know?
Yep I know all about fuzzy cell phone pics!
Well in the mist of these suckers I was trying a new cookie icing ( I posted those ) If you do cookies You might want to give it a try also I really liked it.
I also have to make a bunch of pink ribbon cookies and pink swirled cupcakes ! I dont even like the color pink !
Oh Fiddlesticks, those are soo cute! Now did you have to color the white chocolate and do you use regular paste color for that? I rem trying to color some one time & it was a "blob"! 
I am just soo pleased with my truffles! I shouldn't have waited so long to try that!
Linda Thanks ! Thats precolored choc. I do color choc and never have a problem with it .
You should be pleased with your truffles they look great !
Heres a picture of some of my ribbon suckers bagged. Im glad to have all those done, now on to the cookies! 
Thanks Vicky ! I dont have that oreo mold Im making ribbon cookies out of the NFSC recipe next! Im sure your cookies were wonderful ! I hope your sons doing well?
Is anyone else having this problem -- I haven't received email notices on this in like the last 19 pages!! 
Hey Bob, no problems here ! But I wasent getting any notices at all last week and I sent in a message and they fixed my problem.
Your ribbon suckers look great Fiddle.
Linliv46 --Your truffles about made me lick the computer screen.
I have not made almond truffles in a while, think I might have to.
I have not done anything chocolate in over a week...other thank eating it of course. 
Thanks mkolmar! Well isnt that what choc,s for eating LOL!
Oh believe me I know the feeling I feel like I just have to look at sugar anymore and I gain 5 lbs !! 
Why even use the energy to eat it Just look at it 
It all goes to my belly, and it shows. Looks like I am smuggling it under my shirt.LOL
Thats where mine goes to ,right to the mid section ! 
Hate it hate it ! Maybe it wouldnt be so bad if it would spread its self around some! Or we could just squish it to make it go where we wanted it to !! 
Well NO notices again today!
mkolmar -thanks for the comment on my truffles!
Fiddlesticks, love your packaging on the suckers! Do you know if I can freeze some truffles? I made some white choc. with pina-colada (Sp) flavoring today but haven't finiished them. I think I am doing them in molds.
Linda, I have never froze any but they will last for weeks in the fridge.
Yes, I sometimes wonder if just taping it to my thighs would skip the middle man.
Ha, story of my life.
Fiddle - I just made Valentine's cookies from the NFSC recipe. My first time using it, and I'm very happy. I think RI will help sweeten them up.
I'm out of chocolate! Somehow, those big'ol bags and tons of bars I bought disappeared. I really need to start closing the bedroom door when I sleep...lol
sayhellojana.. Yes the NFSC is my fav go to recipe .I love it! Im going to use the new icing recipe I just tried on my Mickey cookies for the ribbon cookies I have to do. I really liked working with it. I have all my cookies cut out and back in the fridge.I didnt have time to bake yesterday when I cut them out. I hope later today or Sun I can get going on them .I had out of town over night company last night ,but they left early. I hope you post your cookies when your done .
I'm decorating later today - so sure I'll post a pic
Here are my cookies. NFSC (flavored with 1/2 teaspoon vanilla 1/2 teaspoon almond) fondant and RI. I dont do cookies often. I thought the RI was too thick, I had a lot of trouble piping with it.
sayhellojana
Those are soo pretty and they look perfect to me! I am going to make one more recipe and try the fondant. I have never put it on a cookie! Actually, I have some impression mats I want to try! Its a good excuse!
Haven't finished my wht. Choc truffles yet but I am going to do them in the molds! 
sayhellojana.. Those turned out very nice!
Thanks for sharing them !
Linda I love doing fondant on cookie tops I think its very easy to work with and looks wonderful to!
eating evidence is never a bad thing
I'll be doing lots of chocolates, hopefully, next weekend after the AZ cake and sugar art show. I'm excited!!!
